I've had many times, I can tell you,
Bb Am Gm Dm C
Times when innocence I'd trade for compan...y,
F F Dm
And children saw me crying.
Bb Am Gm
I thought I had my share of that.
Bb Am Gm F
But these Miss You Nights are the longest.
F F Dm
Midnight diamonds stud my heaven,
Bb Am Gm Dm C
Southward burning lie the jewels that eye your place,
F F Dm
And warm winds that embrace me,
Bb Am Gm
Just as surely kissed your face.
Bb Am Gm F
Yeah, these Miss You Nights they're the longest.

(How I missed you,)
Am Gm Bb
How I missed you, I'm not likely to tell.
Dm
I'm a man,
Am Gm C
And cold daylight buys the pride I'd rather sell.
C F
(All my secrets,)
Am Gm
All my secretes are a wasted affair,
Dm F
You know them well.
F Dm
Thinking of my going,
Bb Am Gm Dm C
How to cut the thread and leave it all behind.
F F Dm
Looking windwards, for my compass,
Bb Am Gm
I take each day as it arrives.
Bb Am Gm F
But these Miss You Nights are the longest.
Bb
(Lay down,)
Bb Am Dm F Bb
Lay down all thoughts of your surrender,
Bb Am Gm
It's only me who's killing time.
Bb
(Play down,)
Bb Am Dm F Bb
Play down all dreams and themes once remembered,
Bb Gm Bb Gm
It's just the same, this miss you game.
Bb Gm F
Yes, these Miss You Nights are the longest.
